This week we meet Ranette, who is an interesting character, if not quite what some of the crew had been hoping for. And then Wax has a plan. We're rapidly approaching the end of the book now, but exactly what that end will look like is still shrouded in mystery for our newbies. Some great theories this week, though. Is Mr. Suit not human? Is Miles an old friend in disguise? Is Marasi still the secret bad guy? Who knows? Not us on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

This week our crew gets to meet the infamous Miles Hundredlives, and then they get to see Wax fight him on top of a moving train. Also, Clamps appears. I can't stress enough how much we all love that there's a guy called Clamps in this book. Hear the myriad Futurama references that inevitably follow on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

This week there's a couple of attempted murders, which, let's be honest, is kind of a step back from all the actual killing in the previous episode. On top of that, we get some very emotional backstory on Wayne, which has each of our crew feeling like actual feelings for this wacky, off-the-wall sidekick. All this and Brandon's Kickstarter on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

THERE WAS A FIREFIGHT!! - FBI Special Agent Paul Smecker
So, yeah, that sums up the first chapter pretty well. And then there's a nice little chat about chemistry and human nature, just for a change of pace. Kind of whiplashy couple of chapters for our crew, but they came through them ok. Still a lot of suspicious looks being thrown Marasi's way. There's just something off about that girl. Hear what everyone thinks about her on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Jaymee is out this week. So the boys get together to discuss a chatty couple of chapters. Marasi's character starts to develop a bit more, and the Wax and Wayne relationship is really coming to life - that is until the party is stormed by bandits, a guy gets murdered, and Steris and Marasi are both kidnapped. Check out the reactions on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

This week we meet Wayne and the Harms family. We also learn about the mysterious railroad-robbing Vanishers gang. And while the mysteries of who the Vanishers are, and how and why they're pulling off these robberies is definitely enticing, the real gem for our crew this week was Steris. Just how crazy is this woman? Find out where we stand on this issue in this week's edition of The Sanderlanche!

This week we return to Scadrial for The Alloy of Law. Our crew is delighted by the western vibe and intrigued by Waxillium Ladrian, our new allomancer-about-town. But mysteries abound. What was the deal with Bloody Tan? Who is the mysterious Wayne? What kind of parent names their kid Barl? Join us as we begin a whole new Mistborn adventure on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

We finish up The Emperor's Soul this week. And Brandon doesn't let us get away without a bit of action in the story. Listen to everyone's reactions and thoughts on this piece now that it's over. Then get hyped for the next story we're reading, Sixth of Dusk, by going through the Drominad System essay with us, an essay filled with interesting Cosmere tidbits, particularly about how travelling between planets works.

Lot of days, but not all that much happening. Shai continues to be trapped in her room and makes progress toward her dual goals of completing the emperor's soul and escaping with her life. We do, however, get a few interesting pieces of knowledge and character that give the podcast crew some interesting topics to talk over. The real question is, with only two chapters left, how is this all going to end? You certainly won't find out on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

We're back for the next portion of Shai's imprisonment this week. Her time is almost half gone by the end of this section, and her prospects for escape or even success are looking a bit bleak. Find out what the crew thinks is going to happen to her on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

This is the first of 4 episodes covering the novella, The Emperor's Soul. Our crew is excited to be starting something new again and is immediately drawn into Shai's story. What twist and turns await them in this tale of art and intrigue? Who knows ... other than me ... and I guess most of you. Lots of people know is basically what I'm saying, but Joe, Dac and Jaymee don't, and that's what makes it fun for the rest of us. Right? Anyway, eat Sanderlanche!

This week we're kind of wrapping up the whole Elantris thing by reading one short story and then a few other tidbits, all to give us more of an idea about what is going on on Sel. Dead god? Sentient planet? Sexy Drifter? The fun never stops on Sel, at least that's the idea on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Things really took a turn for the worse in these chapters. It's been exactly a day since Roial died in the previous set of chapters, and if you thought that was bad, you ain't seen nothin' yet, my kayana sules. If something bad could happen, it's happening here. So strap in and join the crew as we sift through the charred remains of all the hopes and dreams we very briefly cherished for the happiness of our beloved characters on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

The magic is back! The crew is very excited as Raoden finally finds the solution to the puzzle of how to fix AonDor. Then things really start to ramp up. People die. Identities are revealed. Things. Are. Happening. It looks like it we have firmly entered the Sanderlanche at this point. The only thing left to do is hold on for dear life on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Seven chapters this week, but surprisingly little actually happening it seems like. Some tantalizing possibilities arise regarding the true cause behind the Reod. So our crew gets a chance to revisit that question, the question the book started with, actually. Why did Elantris fall? And Hrathen converts a nation. It's just that easy. Don't know what all the fuss has been about this whole book, really. But is it maybe a little underwhelming with how easy it was? Find out what our newbies are thinking as we approach the home stretch on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Six chapters this week, and some interesting stuff happening. Sarene is thrown into Elantris, and it's generating a lot of theories among our crew about what direction this is all going to end up going. We're approaching the final stretch here, only 4 episodes left in this book after this one. So let's take this ride together on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

The last episode we recorded for a while, but for you all there should only be one week, next week, with no new episode. The King is dead, long live the - wait, who's going to be king now? Join us as we try to figure out where the heck any of this is going. Hrathen was an Elantrian and then he wasn't. Sarene is engaged. Again. And Raoden is going to ... explode or something? Who knows. Certainly no one on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!

Six chapters this time around, and some serious stuff happening for the crew to sink their teeth into. What exactly does this poison do that Hrathen has taken? What will the extended consequences of his entrance into Elantris be? What will be the fallout from Sarene and her confrontation with Iadon? So many things happening here, and all of it just raises further questions, as Hermes would say. See what our Sanderson newbies think of all the excitement on this week's episode of The Sanderlanche!
